Technical support is NOT provided on BRS.org email accounts. We are unable to provide technical support relating to setup, error messages, etc. when configuring a new account or maintaining an existing account.

The BRS.org is providing email services "AS-IS" and the BRS assumes no responsibility for the timeliness, deletion, mis-delivery or failure to store any user communications or personalization settings.

B. First initial, middle initial, and last name of member ( EXAMPLE — jasmith@brs.org).

C. First name, and last name of member (EXAMPLE — johnsmith@brs.org).

Two members cannot have the same address so if the above naming conventions are taken, a series of numbers must be appended to the end of the address for validation in our system. (EXAMPLE— jsmith123@brs.org)

Use of company email addresses, as a point of contact, is STRICTLY PROHIBITED and will result in termination, or automatic rejection of your account. (EXAMPLE — jsmith@csx.com)

Using a email program like Outlook will cause the emails from your account to be downloaded to the email program on your computer. The Webmail area will only display emails that have not been previously downloaded to your computer; it cannot display emails that were previously downloaded to your computer by an email program.
